in the afternoon, while hazel napped, anna stayed at the beach with some other moms and alden came over to play minecraft with isaac. the sand and salt and sun wore them out. 
day five. juliana’s birthday. off to dunkin donuts for an early breakfast birthday celebration. 
we pretty much took over dunkin donuts for our little gathering. i’m sure they were glad to see us leave. singing to the birthday girl.
after some donuts, we were off to the aquarium (it’s free with our zoo membership!)… this super sweet sand sculpture was on the way in. the boys were mesmerized.

the boys. i like to think they were talking about sharks and ocean life, but i’m sure they were discussing minecraft.
